taking place this morning. 25 at the airport. 30 at the inner harbor. time is about 7:35. top of the hour winds were calm. at least we don't have to calculate any wind chill. it's been cold but not as cold as it has been. it's 22 in chestertown and 25 in catonsville. we're going to sneak into the lower 30's today. you saw on the skycam picture the thin cloud deck. we'll call it a mixture of sunshine and a few clouds. no precipitation. we're watching a storm in the midwest producing freezing rain and sleet unfortunately. across portions of illinois and back towards st. louis. and this is the leading edge of a much warmer air mass that will visit us later in the week. we expect temperatures to get higher in the middle of the week but tomorrow morning there will be a warm front the early

morning commute gives us the possibility of some snow, sleet or freezing rain before the warm front goes through and we start to warm up in the afternoon. so there could be some minor icing going on in the morning tomorrow. give yourself extra time. the winter weather advisory that's only for frederick counties out west will be extended to the east towards baltimore later this morning. i'm sure of that. so it will be a slippery start on monday. but not right now. the high temperatures between 30-35. sunset at 5:22. seven-day forecast says wintry mix tomorrow morning including some snow, sleet or freezing rain. then it warms up. we'll be in the 50's on tuesday and wednesday then it gets cold again with highs in the 20's and maybe some snow on friday. >> if you're heading to new orleans for super bowl xliii and you're looking for a place to stay, the better business

was being advertised on craig's list and it wasn't me. >> a telltale sign, bad grammar and demanding money up front including this email that says this same date has been inquired by three different parties but i have not received money yet. though this scam is disheartening, it's not stopping them from doing what they do best. >> you love to have people come to the city and enjoy it. >> something the inkeepers will keep doing despite the rise in scams. >> that was blake hanson reporting and something else to look for, phony tickets and memorabilia. jody thomas is here from the better business bureau on how to make sure you don't get scammed. >> that's one thing, where are you going to stay. so be careful there. >> tickets, memorabilia, right foul tickets. people are anxious and excited.

they are looking for tickets. that example showed craig's list. you have to be really careful on craig's list. buyers are pretty much going to want cash or wired payment. there's a big red flag there. you want to pay by credit card or paypal or if you use ebay where you have a protection but you don't want to go offline and deal with a buyer that you don't know what you're getting into. and she had pressure as well so that was a tip-off. >> if someone says call me on the phone or meet me down the street, probably not. >> no. and you don't want to be carrying around big wads of cash either. so you would put yourself in a compromising position there. >> but paying with a credit card, not even a debit card. >> correct. you want visa, mastercard, american express, something with the benefits of the provider of that credit card company.

you know, through some ticket brokers there are some more reliable ticket brokers. go through the ravens site and look at acredited ticket brokers and or bbb's site. >> let's talk about the memorabilia. what do you need to look for? >> this is a tough one. you've got to really be educated, first of all. know the products so you can spot a ripoff. but signatures again are going to be difficult so you want to make sure you go to a vetted vender. check out the company you're dealing with. stay away from individuals again. craig's list, you want certificates of authenticity. it's going to be an exciting year with ray lewis retiring, you know it's going to be a big buzz after the game. >> and have a friend snap a

picture of them actually signing something if you can. stay with us, the spca joins us next with a pet looking for a good home, but first here's a look at last night's winning lottery numbers.

>> look at that fates. obviously it's time for our pet segment from the maryland spca is katy. welcome. introduce us to your buddy. you have been taking the little

he mht join ray lewis in the super bowl being his last ride, but not his style really to let anybody know. rarlse john harford county really happy matt birk -- but regardless, john harbaugh is really happy matt birk is with the ravens now. >> he has been a huge part of joe flacco's development. he's smart and tough and to my eye he is playing the best football he has played to this point. to have that be true at the end of a 24-game season is impressive. he has just done a great job for us and we would not be where we are without matt birk. >> checking in on some college basketball. look at the 7'1" kid. i tried that with nerf basketball in my room as a kid and couldn't do it. baseline slam, one of the best dunks in maryland in years. however, the terps could not

defend the three very well. rashid sulaimon. great. al second half. comes out to seth curry. knocking down another three. duke, 11-22 from downtown and too many toferingse and also had to deal with that. nathan plumlee, the reverse, no-look follow slam. something i had not yet before seen. that was impressive. 84-64, your final. terps fall to 3-4 in a.c.c. play. i'm pete gilbert. have yourselves a fantastic one week from today is super bowl, it's great. >> and ericka hill joins us live from new york with a preview of what's coming up. good morning. we like your ravens purple. >> ha ha. thank you lisa. how did you know it was just for you? good morning. coming up on sunday morning on tae, we'll have much more on

bread pudding. >> yes. we're going to start off making some bread pudding, and it's very important to know you can youzhny kind of bread to make the bread pudding. french bread we have here and my favorite is the ones with the raisins and the nuts and grains. reason being you can already incorporate it in the ingredients you already have. so we start off with bread, milk and navy bean. we blended it with the butters and sugars and oils. >> and you said we're focusing on beans for a good reason? >> well, fiber is the most important reason because when you put fiber in your body, it accesses the agent and your body uses the food for energy and whatever else it doesn't use it pushes through. the fiber helps that. we are going to put some nutmeg in and got a secret blend. >> you can't tell us that part?

>> no. then we have some vanilla. incorporate it and get all those ingredients in there nice. >> so if you wanted to do more of a cinnamon bread you could do that, too? >> cinnamon, pumpkin. french is really good because it holds up really good, and you will get those ingredients in there and see how it sokes it up? then put the sugar over the top. and then -- >> brown shug center >> i use brown sugar, because it has a light flavor. and it has the mo lasses and other care medicaling already in there so it will hold together and give it a really nice flavor. we also put some lemon zest in here and you just mix it around and let it soak. let it sit for a little bit. >> are we at the right angle there?

can you see it there? ok. there you go. so you're not really -- you don't want the bread to -- you want it to be chunky? >> yes. and you want it to get really nice and moist. so you're going to have to let it sit for a while and then plate it and put it in a pan. >> so are we going to do that step so some people can see? i will try to hold it up to the camera so we can see how you want that to be. ok. >> so we are just going to take a pan. lightly grease it. you can youzhny size pan or bowl for this. you can use little things to make small, personal sizes. >> ok. while you're doing this, let's take a look at the recipe. if you would like a copy of today's recipe, log on to our website at www.wbaltv.com and click on food or send us a

self--addressed stamp envelope. this looks so good. excellent. and i think i can maybe do this at home. >> it's really easy. >> great dish for a cold morning. >> absolutely. let's take one more look at the seven-day forecast. we're going to take care of that cold. still chilly today, 33. ice tomorrow morning for the morning commute then we'll jump into the 50's tuesday and wednesday but trade out a chance for rain for both days. is this the finished product? >> lovely. >> we're located in owings mills mall in the food court. >> thank you. back at 9:00.
